"Mr. Liu, have you made up your mind? Choosing neither side makes your upcoming situation even more complicated!"
After a mont, Wei Zheng said with an unusually grim expression.
Liu Zixuan’s lips curved slightly: "What? Since I choose neither side, are you planning to join forces to kill ?"
"Not really, it’s just that I hope you consider so things carefully." Gu Daohe said with a gloomy face, "From what I know, the Profound Sword Sect in the Hidden Sects has already issued a kill order against you. If you ally with any side, they might still have concerns, but if you stand alone..."
"Are you blind?" Jiang Yunxuan slapped the back of Gu Daohe’s head: "He still has us brothers by his side!"
Gu Daohe’s brief flash of anger disappeared from his eyes, then he said sternly to Liu Zixuan: "Liu Zixuan, if you stand with us, we can guarantee your protection from the Profound Sword Sect, but if you continue to refuse, whether you live or die is no concern of ours!"
"Patriarch Gu, according to you, without you, I only have a dead end?" Liu Zixuan asked coldly.
"I hope you won’t regret it!" Wei Zheng tugged Gu Daohe, left a cryptic remark, and the two walked away.
After Wei Zheng and Gu Daohe left, Liu Hetian also stood up from his chair.
However, he still maintained a respectful manner, cupping his hands towards Liu Zixuan and asking, "Master Xuan, I can tell that you are sowhat displeased with them, so why not cooperate with us?"
Liu Zixuan waved his hand: "Sect Leader Liu, my mind is made up, no need to say more."
"Sigh." Liu Hetian sighed, patted Jiang Yunxuan on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Yunxuan, if our side loses after this Martial Realm conflict, I hope you can spare a root for the Four Symbols Sect for old tis’ sake!"
"Brother Tian!"
Jiang Yunxuan, though usually carefree and never putting anyone in his eyes, is nonetheless a man of loyalty. Having spent ti with Liu Hetian, he had already ford a bond of friendship.
Hearing his parting words, he felt a bit uneasy.
Liu Hetian shook his head and also headed outside.
Shortly after, Ye Lianyi and Huzi walked in from outside.
"Did you notify them?" Liu Zixuan asked.
Ye Lianyi nodded slightly: "They just arrived this afternoon, made so preparations, and are now on their way here."
"Seems they anticipated my choice." Liu Zixuan laughed.
Huzi scratched his head: "Brother Xuan, actually, we all have a sense in our hearts. No matter whom we choose, it won’t end well. We’re better off sticking together. If they fight, we fight alongside them. If they ignore us, we just enjoy doing our own thing."
"What are you guys talking about?" Jiang Yunxuan asked, confused.
Huzi glanced at him: "Lianyi and I just went to inform Gu Yu and Mo Chengfeng. They already guessed that Brother Xuan wouldn’t choose a side, so they’ve used the ti today to make so preparations at the tournant venue and in this city to guard against both sides teaming up against us."
Jiang Yunxuan grinned: "Speaking of which, even a silly tiger like you thought of this, so why didn’t I?"
"Because you’re a big fool!" Huzi scolded.
"Damn!"
"Enough from you two. You itching for a beating if you don’t scrap for a day?" Liu Zixuan grumbled.
Actually, it was to be expected Jiang Yunxuan hadn’t thought of it. Jiang Yunxuan is loyal, but he also grew up having everything done for him, never mulling over anything. He always relied on others to think for him, so whatever happens next doesn’t matter to him; he goes step by step, as long as he’s happy!
Of course, this is also Jiang Yunxuan’s weakness and the main reason Jiang Yifan sent him down for experience!
As they chatted, Gu Yu and Mo Chengfeng walked in, greeted briefly, and sat down together.
Liu Zixuan glanced at the people most important to him right now and smiled: "You all know roughly the situation. Next, we might be facing the entire Martial Realm!"
"If you did help either side, you wouldn’t be the Brother Xuan I know, and it wouldn’t match your unique fate." Gu Yu said with a mysterious smile.
Mo Chengfeng shrugged: "In the Witch Country, we already faced their entire Martial Realm, and look at us now!"
"Exactly. I have only one thing to say: Live and die with indifference, fight if defied!" Huzi said, waving his fist.
Jiang Yunxuan had been clueless, but seeing all this, he understood and laughed: "Well damn, just do it. Don’t you think being against the whole Martial Realm is super exciting?"
"Hahahaha!"
The brothers all laughed heartily, understanding each other without words.
Gu Yu was right, if Liu Zixuan chose a side for imdiate gain, it wouldn’t be him.
He’s called Liu Zixuan because he fears no one and because he and his brothers will never bow to others. If they must do sothing, it’s standing together at the peak of the Martial Realm!
What seed like a reckless decision now felt more thrilling.
"We’re only missing Zhao Yi now." Mo Chengfeng scratched his head: "He wouldn’t really be with his wife, right?"
Liu Zixuan frowned, pondering Wei Zheng’s parting words, "hope you don’t regret it," which intriguingly seed unrelated to the Profound Sword Sect.
"Zhao Yi lost his phone and wallet; locating him will be tough." Liu Zixuan murmured.
"Stolen by a thief?" Mo Chengfeng asked.
"Yes."
"Were there any IDs in his wallet?"
Hearing Mo Chengfeng’s question, Liu Zixuan nodded in confusion: "Why do you ask?"
"Hold on, I’m going to make a call." Mo Chengfeng smiled mysteriously and walked out.
The group all looked at Gu Yu, faces full of questions.
Gu Yu pinched his forehead: "Ahem, everyone is busy getting stronger, and my brother-in-law hasn’t been idle either. By chance, he acquired a rather special ability."
"Stop being vague, tell us!" Huzi asked curiously.
"Better let him explain. I’ll try to divine Zhao Yi’s location first!"
Gu Yu said and pulled three copper coins from his pocket, smiling at everyone: "Don’t think you’re the only ones growing stronger. My divination skill will surely surprise you now!"
